Zhong Geng's eldest disciple Wu Zhen, a Hundred-wheel Teacher, can almost be promoted to the Thousand-wheel Teacher. He is Zhong Geng's favorite disciple. He is only twenty-eight years old today. Reaching the age of a thousand-wheel master means that this life is likely to step into the realm of a militarist. A militarist, in a remote place, can definitely dominate the king.
Wu Zhen discussed with the master yesterday most of the night, and the only conclusion he reached was that he tried his best to make friends with each other. As for young people like Lei Xingfeng, as long as they were not angry with him, they should not be detrimental to them. Rest assured, such a talented person will never stay in this place for a long time, this place should be only the place where he lives temporarily, that is to say, he simply cannot threaten their local power.
Therefore, Wu Zhen came to invite in the early morning.
Lei Xingfeng did not refuse, but took Zhou Xin with him. As for Uncle Zhou Tong, he was not willing to go. It was really a difficult thing for honest people to communicate with people.
The reason why he brought Zhou Xin and Lei Xingfeng had his own ideas. He knew that he could not stay in the local area for a long time, and let Zhou Xin know Zhong Geng. This kind of powerful ground snake is good for Zhou Xin ’s future development.
Follow the pier back to the market.
The water market in the early morning is extremely beautiful, with a faint mist, a few waterbirds flying leisurely, and a soft sound of water, so the house seems to be floating on the water, and many people have started to stall on the wooden street. All kinds of food stalls, the boardwalk is the waterway, row by boat, after entering the market, noisy sounds rushed across the face.
Wu Zhen said with a smile: "This market is the most lively place near the water surface. There are very few people living together in other places. After the rainy season, there are more people."
Lei Xingfeng said: "Rainy season?"
Wu Zhendao: "Well, the rainy season is not suitable for fishing in the distance. The fishermen will gather, especially in the two months with the heaviest rain. At that time, almost all the fishermen outside will come back to avoid the storm."
Lei Xingfeng does not know much about the local climate. He used to live in mountainous areas, where there are warm and cold seasons. Unlike here, there are also two seasons, but there are rainy and dry seasons. The dry season will have a lot of land. This place is full of water, and the previously exposed land will be submerged again, forming a large swamp lake, so the local people are all fishermen, and there are no land residents.
Along the way, the three quickly came to the residential area after the market, a group of floating wooden houses.
Wu Zhen whistled, and a small boat came over, and a strong fisherman said, "Master," he said, and after he greeted him, he stopped the small boat and waited for three people to get on the boat.
The three of them got on the boat and sat down, and the fisherman said, "Sit down." He said that he pushed the bamboo pole hard and pushed the boat hard. Then he paddled and walked along the waterway.
A moment later, he came to an independent water courtyard with a large wooden platform, Zhou Xin called: "Brother Lei, look, that crocodile fish is on it!"
On the platform, a huge crocodile fish has been divided into several sections, and the skin has been divided. A huge fish head is standing on the platform, the teeth in the mouth are exposed, and each one has a large slap. , With a faint white light, like jade.
Zhou Xin was really curious. When he got on the platform, he ran to see it. Wu Zhen immediately ordered people to keep up in case someone bumped into the child. He now knows that Lei Xingfeng is not generally good for Zhou Xin. He personally accompanied Lei Xingfeng into the room.
Lei Xingfeng noticed that the rooms here are very exquisitely constructed, and they are completely different from the bazaar houses. The bazaar houses are rough and simple, which can meet the living and living needs. The houses here are much more refined, with carved doors and windows. The roof is also covered with glazed tiles, the same is true on the ridge, and a string of wind chimes is hung on the high eaves, and with the breeze, a clear sound is made.
The pillars made of huge logs are carved with various water beasts. The ground wood planks are extremely thick. Stepping on it will know that this is completely different from the wood planks on the market streets. The wood plank streets on the market will creak on it. The creaking sound, there is no sound here, it is conceivable, how many materials are used below, at a glance you know that this is the practice of the rich, with Zhong Geng's strength, in a small place, it is definitely a big rich man .
Carved fence paintings, exquisite carpets, gauze fluttering, all kinds of green plants and flowers in the corners of the corridor, there are many ordinary servants, see Wu Zhen immediately give a gift, said the master.
Lei Xingfeng couldn't help feeling. He was a militarist. He never treated him like this. Before training, he even had to worry about three meals. After training, he continued to fight continuously. He didn't know how much he was richer than this master. But when it comes to the quality of life, he can't beat Wu Zhen anyway.
The largest house is in the middle of the water courtyard. After a few corridors, it comes to the central house. It is a big house with four sides open. Because the climate here is warm, whether it is the rainy season or the dry season, the climate is very warm, so there are many rich People's rooms are hollowed out on all sides, only covered with light gauze to cover the infestation of mosquitoes. This room is more than three hundred square meters, supported by only a dozen huge columns, and a lot of green plants are placed around it.
Lei Xingfeng couldn't help but praise: "It's a very good building." He is also a well-known person. Although this building is exquisite and unusual, his expression is also very indifferent.
Wu Zhen nodded secretly. Only people who know a lot will have such a look. He has seen many local riches. When he entered here, they were all stunned. Zhong Geng greeted him. He smiled: "Welcome , Hehe, a little bit crude. "He said politely.
Lei Xingfeng said: "It's already very good."
Behind Zhong Geng is Han Wanbao. As for Tian Dabing, he didn't show up at all. Yesterday, Tian Dabing's performance made him very disappointed. If the Tian family had no small forces in the local area, I was afraid that he would immediately chase away this guy and simply blame the master.
The four of them sat down, and a servant served breakfast. Lei Xingfeng said: "Bring a copy to my little brother."
Zhong Geng gave a command, and immediately a servant went to the platform to wait for Zhou Xin to have breakfast.
Breakfast is very rich, with rice, porridge, various fried fish pieces, and many marinated vegetables and vegetables. Lei Xingfeng does not know much. They are all local specialty products. The taste is quite good. He is very satisfied.
After breakfast, Zhong Geng began to explore Lei Xingfeng. He hoped to know which school of Lei Xingfeng was, and why he had come to this remote place.
Of course Lei Xingfeng wouldn't tell the truth. He just said it briefly. It was a requirement of the teacher. He came here to practice for a period of time without special purpose.
Although Zhong Geng was half-confident, he also felt relieved. He saw that Lei Xingfeng had no malice, and his disciples ’experience was a behavior common to all major schools. Any disciple ’s disciple would go out and experience, for various reasons, and strange experiences He didn't doubt it at all.
Han Wanbao hadn't said anything. She looked at Lei Xingfeng curiously. She couldn't figure it out. People at such a young age are even more powerful than masters. Master Lin, that's extremely powerful. I have also seen a tanner, at least seventy or eighty years old. It was really full of racks. I didn't expect a young man to be able to practice tanner. I really don't know how this person cultivated.
Zhong Geng said: "Brother Lei, since you came here to experience, stay with me in the future, it is better than living on a boat."
Lei Xingfeng categorically refused. He didn't want to live here. It was inconvenient to practice anything. He said: "This is not necessary. I still live on the boat. However, there is one thing to trouble Mr. Zhong."
Zhong Geng said: "Please say, as long as I can help, there must be no problem."
Lei Xingfeng said: "I need a boat. Well, I can pay to buy it." He considered that if the rainy season comes, he needs to go out to practice. Thunderstorm days are the golden season for his cultivation. He needs to quickly improve his own here. Strength, it is necessary to go out by himself, it is impossible to trouble Uncle Zhou, and it is very dangerous to go out in rainy days, especially in thundery rain days. Uncle Zhou is an ordinary person, he can not stop the thunder and lightning.
Zhong Geng said in surprise: "I want to buy a small boat ... uh, no problem, I have it here, I will send you one directly, um, do you want a servant?"
Lei Xingfeng said: "No need to send, I buy, and don't need servants."
Zhong Geng said with a smile: "It's just a small boat, I really don't need to buy it, hehe, the boat is not worth the money locally."
Lei Xingfeng thought about it for a while, and forget it, for him, a small boat is really nothing, he is not an ordinary person, nodded and said: "Okay, so thank you." Thank you, it is still necessary.
Zhong Geng smiled suddenly, he was very satisfied with Lei Xingfeng's attitude, he immediately ordered his men to prepare a good boat.
Communicating with Zhong Geng, Lei Xingfeng got a lot of news. This was not available from Uncle Zhou. This place is indeed very remote. It is a small and unremarkable corner of Wanhuzhou. You can go to Jumanzhou, which is where Lei Xingfeng came out, and it is at least ten years away from the center of Wanhuzhou. Of course, if the cultivator uses the ancient wheel channel, it won't take long.
Compared with Jumanzhou, Wanhuzhou is more lively, not only has a large urban population, but also has many cultivators. Even in a small remote place, there are many cultivators, but this world is too big and really wide. There are few people in a small place. Even if there are cultivators, the number of people will not be too much, and the level is relatively low. A ten thousand wheel division or even a thousand wheel division is enough to control a place.
Many cultivators who have no hope of promotion will eventually choose to return to their hometowns for development, or find a remote small place. When they are a local wealthy man and dominate a place, it is enough to develop a small family.
Zhong Geng said: "Brother Lei, are you free in recent days?"
Lei Xingfeng said: "Is something wrong?"
Zhong Geng laughed: "Yes, it's a good thing."
